Question

Can someone please help me double-check my answer for this simple problem?

Answer 1

The question is:

'This equation represents Newton's Second Law of Motion, F=ma. It shows the relationship of force, mass, and acceleration.

If the mass of an object is tripled, and the force acting on it is doubled, how will the object's acceleration be affected?'

A.
Acceleration will be one-half the original value.

B.
Acceleration will be two times the original value.

C.
Acceleration will be six times the original value.

D.
Acceleration will be two-thirds the original value.

I think that the answer is D, but I'm not sure. Can someone please explain this to me?
